Thanks guys! I will try and put the OEM ones back on to clear the light first. Anyways, I am off to Australia for 3 weeks so if I don't reply to any posts, thats why. Happy Holidays everybody!

 

Australia ?

Family there ?

 

Nope, just vacation.

 

Damn. I was fishing for a cheap holiday destination there ! Lol

Have fun in summer there, send pictures of the autobans.

 

Well, I am doing it cheap . I have a buddy who went over there for a year to go to school so we are staying with him. That saves LOTS of money on hotel rooms for us.

I will take plenty of pics, and my goal is to find a place to rent a 6MT 350Z since they are RHD.

Thanks and have a good holiday yourself.

 

I'm thinking about the "swap the wheels back" thing. There might be some difference with the 2006 TPMS system.

My Titan is an 2006 and the TPMS lights blinks and turns ON as soon as I start it. I'm running on a separate set of OEM wheels with different sensors. Maybe the presence of the sensors changes things?

Otherwise, my 2005 Z is behaves like yours and it takes a while for the light to come ON when I have the aftermarket wheels.

 

^^^Thats what I am hoping. I will have to wait and see until after I get back though.

 

I bought 06 GT this year, the manager from Nissan told me that once I removed the stock wheels, the TPS light will stay on all the time. (That's stupid). Because I want to have the other set of wheel for winter tires. But I've been told even If I got the winter wheels, tires n TPS from them, they have to reset the code between the TPS n the car's computer (of course you have to pay evey time for reset). So pay more $$$$ or drive with the little light......it's ur choice man.

 

the tps for the 05 is standard on all models..... but any ways... i had the same issue with my 05 350z... all i did was put my stocks back on and drove on them for a few hours and put my after market wheels back on..... the only time they come on now is when i have long distance drives or should i say road trips.... oh yeah and another thing... i learned to ignore that damn light... lol
